Some annoying things about WordPress: Category assignment

As you develop your blog, you may decided to change the overall topic of your blog. Thus, you may want to re-categorize your posts. Or, as the number of posts grow you decide to stremline your topics and cut down on categories (and use tags instead). How easy is that in TypePad versus WordPress?

In WordPress, I can not assign categories (or tags) to a batch of posts in one go, I have to do it manually one-by-one. That can be tedious and time-consuming if you have a lot of posts. Not so in TypePad. Not just categories, but also it is also possible to batch open/close comments or batch allow/disallow trackbacks (pingbacks in WP). Thumbs up for TypePad on this one!
